Description: | A probable cast copper-alloy strap-end of medieval date. Formed of plate, doubled back upon itself, and tapering towards a squared terminal. There is a single, circular rivet hole through in the plate. The upper, or outer, face has a linear border within which there is evidence for gilding. it seems likely to be a simple form of strap-end but this is not certain. Similarly, the dating is ambiguous although it is likely to be late medieval to post-medieval. It measures 18.80mm in length, 15.39mm in width, 2.83mm in height and weighs 2.07g
